Hi Raju

Unfortunately, I can't remeber the exact details, other than it was with an MS Word document.

I think the best thing for me to do is to wait until it happens again, at which time I will record all the details and then re-log the question.

In the meantime, many thanks for your kind and very much appreciated assistance.

Hi Raju,

I find it happens occasionally in a single document or two; not all of our Word documents.

So, returning to the original poster's questions: 

'This document could not be registered.  It will not be possible to create links from other documents to this document.'

Specifically;

1. What does this mean?
2. Why and how would I register a document?
3. Why can't other documents be linked to a non-registered document

Thank you,

Cathy
